Welcome to the Office of Undergraduate Research at Old à£à£Ö±²¥Ðã University!
As part of the Division of Research and Economic Development, our mission is to promote and advance opportunities for undergraduate students to engage in faculty-supervised research and creative activities. We believe that active engagement outside of the classroom is a cornerstone of the undergraduate experience.
As a preeminent public research institution, at Old à£à£Ö±²¥Ðã University, we provide undergraduate students with access to transformative research experiences that spark curiosity, deepen learning, and foster connections with a diverse community of peers and faculty. By participating in these opportunities, students can explore their fields of interest, develop valuable skills, and gain the confidence to persevere toward their degree and beyond—whether in advanced education or their chosen careers.
Our office is here to inspire and support students and faculty as they collaborate on research and creative projects that make an impact at ODU and beyond. We welcome you to explore our resources, connect with our team, and visit us to learn how you can become part of a thriving culture of discovery and innovation.
We look forward to working with you and helping you unlock the potential of undergraduate research at ODU!
Dr. Orlando Ayala
Director
